African Race lyrics

We are the slave descendants of the African race African race, the African race We are the slave descendants of the African race where proud is no disgrace Our forefathers were taken away, taken away, taken away They were bound in ships and shackled all the way like baggage and brought the west They swapped my brother now, also, my sister too for a drink of wine, so they could drink and be merry so they could drink and be merry I speak Amharic, my sister speaks Swahili they put us together now, that's why we can't understand that's why we can't understand We are the slave descendants of the African race African race, the African race We are the slave descendants of the African race where proud is no disgrace we're proud of our African race (is no disgrace) where proud is no disgrace we're proud of our African race (is no disgrace)
